About

CAMO-Net Ghana is based at the West African Centre for Cell Biology of Infectious Pathogens (WACCBIP), University of Ghana.

Led by Programme Director Professor Gordon Awandare, the research mission of WACCBIP is to conduct cutting-edge research and innovation to guide the development of new approaches to disease diagnosis, prevention, and control. One of their primary objectives is determining the molecular bases for differences in host susceptibility to infectious diseases to guide better disease prevention and management. WACCBIP is aligned with CAMO-Net through its priority research themes of biomarkers and molecular diagnosis, as well as molecular epidemiology for disease surveillance and drug resistance monitoring.

“AMR is such a huge issue globally; it is one of the biggest threats to global health in our life time.”
